Difficulty :beginner

CSV (Comma Separated Values) and JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) are both popular data formats. This converter helps transform data between these formats, which is a common need in web development and data processing.

This project teaches you about data formats, parsing algorithms, and building useful developer tools.

User Stories:

  • User can paste CSV data into a text area
  • User can click a 'Convert' button to transform CSV to JSON
  • User can see the converted JSON in another text area
  • User can copy the JSON output to clipboard

  • User can handle different CSV delimiters (comma, semicolon, tab)
  • User can preview data in a table format before conversion
  • User can convert JSON back to CSV
  • User can handle special characters and escape sequences
  • User can validate and format the JSON output
  • User can process large CSV files efficiently

What you'll learn:

  • CSV parsing algorithms and edge cases
  • JSON structure and formatting
  • File upload and download functionality
  • Text processing and string manipulation
  • Error handling for data validation
  • Regular expressions for parsing
